URN Lib

The URN library is a replacement library for Java's java.net package. Instead of limiting you in arbitrary ways like Java's in-built system, you can extend the capabilities in many more ways. The main feature is the ability to deal with Uniform Resource Names (URN) as well as URLs.

Image Loading

Tired of Java's poor support for image formats? Pissed off with the URL connection returning something other than an image when the content type is image/*? This package handles a much larger variety of image formats and speaks the right language of URLs. It complements the URN package as content handlers or will work with the standard java.net package. Twice as fast and using a quarter of the memory, this package is a must have.

Common Code

A collection of common code for the system. These class libraries provide property management, extensions to the standard java.util classes and much more.
